The CEO’S Unplanned Heir novel (Aurelia and Leopold) -
Chapter 218
Chapter 218
Aurelia had always thought that he was going to be a lone wolf, never settling down.
Perhaps even the wind gets tired sometimes, hoping to replace a cloud where it can rest and replacepeace.
However, the chances of replaceing a soulmate are even slimmer than winning the lottery. The vastmajority of men who cheat and women who tempt them are not driven by true love, but by greedand lust.
She believed that Arno’s mother was after not just love, but also a prince's position and the StirlingGroup empire. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so desperate to climb up the ladder.
Snapping out of her thoughts, she picked up her glass of juice and smiled, “I wish you the best inreplaceing your soulmate. May all lovers unite!”
"Same to you.” Arnold clinked his glass with hers, his eyes filled with a soft, foggy affection that wastoo intense to dissipate
Halfway through their meal, he checked his WhatsApp.
The chat group was buzzing again today. The rumors about Leopold and Evelyn were continuouslybrewing, causing quite a stir. A lot of ambiguous videos of the two were released from the RoseCoast yacht party.
“Leopold and Evelyn went to the yacht party. It looks like Elowen will be crying a river againtonight.”
Aurelia's hand, holding her fork, suddenly tightened, then slowly relaxed, and she put the forkdown.
"Can I see?”
Arnold handed his phone to her.
In the video, Leopold was leaning on the alligator skin sofa on the deck, dressed in casualbeachwear, radiating an indescribable lazy charm. His handsome features, highlighted by the glowof the sun, were so captivating that one could hardly take their eyes off him.
Evelyn, in a very S**y swimsuit, was flaunting her attractive body.
She was sitting next to Leopold, constantly leaning against him, being overly touchy-feely.
Aurelia felt she was short of using super glue to attach herself to Leopold.
There were many other people on the deck, but the two were unashamedly flaunting their affection,not caring about the presence of others.
Aurelia didn't want to watch anymore. Her eyes hurt, and her chest felt like it was being suffocatedby something.
Leopold was so picky and strict with her, even dictating how she dressed, forbidding her fromwearing low-cut tops, or short skirts...
And Evelyn was dressed like that, almost naked, and he didn’t mind at all.
Indeed, for someone you like, you give them the green light in all aspects, pampering them to deathno matter what they say or do. But for someone you dislike, even breathing is a mistake, and it's asin just to exist!
She handed the phone back to Arnold, picked up her glass, had some juice, and tried to wash awaythose inexplicable emotions that she shouldn't have.
“Poor Ms. Elowen, if I were her, I would have broken off the engagement without hesitation, insteadof torturing myself like this.”
Arnold gazed at her unblinkingly, his hazel eyes twinkling in the starlight, making him lookmysterious and unfathomable.
A woman as beautiful and free-spirited as her was the unattainable moonlight in many men’shearts, and surely a beauty mark in the hearts of some men. If lost, it would be a lifelong regret."She's not you, and she could never be you.” Arnold said.
She sighed lightly, “When I was in school, teachers always said that where there's a will, there's away, as long as you persevere, you will succeed. But it wasn't until I entered society that I realizedthat many things can't be achieved by sheer persistence. Sometimes, knowing when to give up is agood thing.”
Arnold's gaze fell on the juice in his glass, a trace of indescribable expression quietly passed over hishandsome face.
“Perhaps.” he said in a low voice, his tone as soft as a whisper.
Just then, Aurelia’'s phone rang, Leopold had sent a WhatsApp message, “Are you at the SunbeamRetreat? I'm sending Yuna to pick you up.”
She was taken aback, thinking she must have read it wrong. Did the yacht party end so soon?
Was the big boss rushing over to do prenatal education for his children? What a master of timemanagement, balancing both love and family!
